Online education causes students to take learning into their own hands. Learning happens only when students choose to show up. They must intentionally set aside time to complete their online course and seek help when they need it.

At Apex Learning Virtual School, we challenge students to become independent learners. Our courses encourage students to develop critical thinking skills. Course activities include real-world examples and application.

Even though students are working on their own, they are not alone. We support students with experienced teachers who provide formative feedback and online tutors who offer real-time help.
